This post is dedicated to all my friends who are about to make big decision of their life or my friends who are doubting about the decision/pathway that they'd took or people who always lamenting about hard works never pay off.
Fear of failure is a big obstacle to success. All along our life, we are being told many negative things or opinions. My own experiences are being told that doctor are going to be overflowed soon, it's not worth to spend so much money on medical degree, and I might be ending up as a taxi driver with MBBS degree. Those words are sounded discourages, but I'm glad I made a decision to go for my dream.
We tend to doubt ourselves. We doubted on our own ability. We doubted on how far we can achieve with our hard work and determination. Maybe there are people who never doubt on their ability, but at least I did. Doubts sometimes changed our mind on doing some tasks or taking up some opportunity.
We should just try our best rather than thinking we can do it or not. Even if we failed after we tried our best, there is no regret. We learnt from trial and errors. We shouldn't be sad or depress and even thinking of give up when we failed a tasks. In fact, we should be glad because we learnt another way of how "not to do" something and we're one step closer to our success.
We tend to ask ourself: "if we put in effort, can we achieve our goal or not? What if we put in tons of effort but we fail in the end?" The thinking of unwillingness-to-sacrifice distanced us from our goal. Yea, I used to be one of these group of people but I've seen success of an individual comes with a lot of hard works. No doubts there are people who worked very hard but still a failure. Hard works not 100% lead to success, but all successes 100% come with hard works. That's the ugly truth of success. Take it or leave it!
Another thing is procrastination. I procrastinated a lot and somehow there's some sort of enjoyment when I procrastinating. But when I sort of done procrastinating, it's just feeling like oh my God and I'm in deep trouble. Procrastination is just like masturbation. At first, it feels good, but in the end you'll realised that you just f**k yourself. I'm trying to get rid this habit for now and at least whenever I on facebook, I'm reading my lecture notes at the same time.
I chose a path that which is tough. In fact, I think every path to success is tough. I'm enjoying my course and I think I love it even more compared to the time before I enrolled into my course. I'm glad I made this decision and I feel blessed as I'm given the opportunity. I do feel my course is tough on certain times. But I'll always remember, when life's tough, just HAHAHA! I'll face the toughness of life with optimism.
So people, when you have a dream and even it's the wildest dream on universe, just try your best to go for it. Leave no regrets.
P/S: I'm still a fetus developing in the sea of medicine. =P
